Waiting for Judge

GIRARDI: So, he is coming, right?.

CASH: I believe so, yes.

GIRARDI: You have seen him? With your own eyes, right.

CASH: He has been seen by many eyes, professional eyes, knowing eyes, the kind of eyes that do not mock God with their insolence.

GIRARDI: And these knowing eyes, they tell you that he is coming, right?

CASH: I believe so, yes.

GIRARDI: You believe so. (Kicks a rock.) So, then, what course shall we take?

CASH: We shall wait and we shall watch. He will come, I am sure.

GIRARDI: Waiting and watching. Isn't that what he is doing? He waits on pitches and watches strike three. He swings wildly. He lunges at balls in the dirt. He has a hole in his swing the size of Massachu-

CASH: I know what he does! We have all seen this.

GIRARDI: So, do we play Refsnyder?

CASH: Don't be a fool. There is no such thing.

Jason Weiser should cover Refsnyder in one of his Myths and Legends podcasts. Refs would make an awesome Mythical Creature of the Week.

You guys really should start listening to podcasts. they're not just for shut-ins and geeks anymore. well, maybe they are, actually...
